sometimes living in new york can feel like too much. i like to be reminded that little towns surrounded by nature exist too. and it’s nice to go with someone you love :)
sometimes there are small towns 30 minutes to an hour out from you that are waiting to be discovered!! just take a day trip to a town nearby and explore all it has from its local mall, cafes, bookstores, even to the parks that deserve a bit more local love! it’ll be worth the gems you find :)
Try talking to someone without “oh yeah, when something similar happened to me…” or “that reminds me of [me story]” Or “I totally understand because I…” - It’s hard, but worth trying
